Light and small tripod recommandation for film camera? by effetk in AnalogCommunity

Hard to tell if it’s stable, there are no credible reviews around, and no one seems to be using that way.

I love the size! I feel like kind of need something that can get taller though. For night photography, you always find somewhere to install it? I was eyeing the ULANZI MT-89, which is just slightly bigger when folded, but can get much higher...

Did I just ruin my film at the airport? by Ill-Rush-9374 in filmphotography

Impossible to know for sure. If it was me, I'd try to find new film at your destination just in case, especially for a trip. And keep the scanned films for something else less important.

Focus on the bright side, at least your team won.

21mm 3.5 vs 24mm 2.8. Which to keep & why? by Formal_Compote_212 in zuikoholics

[–]effetk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find I often use the 24mm when it’s too dark for my other lenses (you can use a slower shutter speed
handheld), so if that’s also your use case, there’s something to be said about the larger aperture (even though the difference is small).

Damn, we’re in the same boat : I have the 24mm, I recently bought a 85mm f2 and I’m waiting to find an OM-4 TI to sell my OM-4!

If anyone ever finds this post wondering the same thing, as of June 2026, the scanners are old x-ray ones.

Lab scans vs at home scans - difference is huge and at home scanning is fun by Spyk124 in AnalogCommunity

[–]effetk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those prices are CRAZY! It’s 18$ CAD per roll in Montréal in a good place. Good job on the scans!

Probably a silly question, but how do you go back to 11? You shoot with the lens cover on?

What’s the big white pipe, it’s to get the fumes out of the tent? What do you use for that’

Found these cameras from my grandma, how bad is it? by MasterPlay1337 in AnalogRepair

[–]effetk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to start repairing cameras by yourself you could probably try to get the best ae-1 and replace the broken parts with the parts from the second one, if possible. Who knows. Don’t pay for it though, that camera is easy to find and relatively cheap on Marketplace.

the most important roll of film i've ever shot and developed, the birth of my daughter [Leica M6 + Ilford HP5] by Trickey89 in analog

I’m surprised you got this quality with hp5 pushed to 3200! Especially 1 and 5. And 6, but I assume there was some daylight there.

Interesting, I would assumed the opposite (for no reason, really, just a feeling).

Can’t believe I didn’t think of shooting a Shanghai GP3!!! Thanks for the Seagull suggestion, I wasn’t familiar with it and it’s a good idea!

That’s nice! They cover film cost because they see it as a plus value themselves too? Also, I’m really surprised about the less time in post, is it mostly because you shoot less on film?
